3879 Lucy's Treehouse ~Unique Vintage Redwood Home
Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Lucy's Treehouse"! This home sleeps up to 5 guests.
Expansive distant ocean views and stunning sunsets can be enjoyed from the living room windows which cover the entire west side of the house.
From the Redwood board and batten siding to the redwood interior ceilings and walls, this eclectic home will delight guests with its bohemian old-Carmel charm. Full of vintage details, art and furnishings as well as modern conveniences like wifi, cable TV and a dishwasher, this whimsical cottage has the best of all worlds.
Lucy's Treehouse is located an easy stroll to downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea restaurants, shops and other attractions, and is an excellent home base from which to explore everywhere from Santa Cruz to Big Sur.
Living Space The home has a reverse floor plan where the living areas are all upstairs to take advantage of the distant ocean views. Enter into the upper level where the warm living room and its accouterments will capture your fancy and transport you to the yesteryear of Carmel. Fun groupings of art, figurines, artifacts and collectibles are on full display through the home. Well-equipped for extended stays!
Kitchen and Dining The full kitchen is well-equipped with dishware, modern appliances and small appliances for the chef in you. Enjoy meals at the adjacent dining table or out in the enclosed porch where a live tree rises from the floor and exits through the roof above.
Bedrooms and Bathrooms Venture down the narrow redwood staircase to find the bedrooms and bathrooms on the level below. Bedroom #1 has a California king bed and an en suite bathroom with a standing shower. The new fixtures make everything feel fresh while the charm of yesteryear is maintained in so many details. Exit directly into the garden through an enclosed sun porch / storage area off this room. Bedroom #2 has two twin beds, and Bedroom #3 has a single twin bed and direct access outside. The hall bath has a shower-over-tub combination and a new vanity.
Please note that there are quite a few stairs on this property and that both bathrooms are on the lower level near the bedrooms while the living areas are on the upper level.
The stacking washer and dryer are in a small closet inside Bedroom #1.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum. Dogs should never be left alone anywhere on the property.
One covered parking space is available just off the street.
Please be aware that Lucy's Treehouse is situated behind a small detached cottage called Apple Tree Cottage where a quiet, long-term tenant resides. The two cottages are very separate and your privacy will be assured.

Lovely little cabin. Great view, fun eclectic antique(y) furnishings. Quiet but only 2 blocks from downtown, so easy walk to shopping restaurants etc., walked the dog down to the beach most days. Just what we wanted.

Thank you for the lovely review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to your next visit to Carmel.
It was so interesting being able to enjoy the many collections that Lucy has in the house. The tree's growing through the tea room and the deck added to the nature enviroment. Loved all the wild life that felt so comfortable around the house. If you are a nature lover, you will love this house. Thank you Lucy for sharing your love of all things!

Reviewer Comments:
We loved the view from the living room windows! A different sunset almost every evening. The wildlife in the tree tops was so much fun to watch. Birdwatching was first hand! Wild garden flora was beautiful. Very quiet neighborhood, but so close to downtown Carmel. A two-block walk to the shops and restaurants. Very convenient. The owner of this home could certainly upgrade some of the furniture, especially in the living room. The dining room chairs were quite wobbly, not safe to sit in some of them! Great kitchen upgrades. We had all that we needed to cook or bake anything. Very comfortable master bedroom Cal king bed. Great central heating system in the home.
